Cooper Flagg is already making the crucial fix Mavericks need to be unstoppable

Ahead of the 2025-26 season, Cooper Flagg is working on his 3-point jumper, and him making considerable improvements in this area would truly make the Dallas Mavericks one of the most unstoppable teams in the NBA once they're fully healthy.

Flagg's trainer, Matt MacKenzie, recently spoke with Mark Medina of RG, and he specifically dove into Flagg's work on his 3-point jumper, especially the timing.

"He has been really working on improving the time it takes to be able to get off clean 3s," MacKenzie said.

Flagg's potential shooting leap would unlock the Mavs' entire offense

Flagg's 3-point shooting was a small area of concern during NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, as he wasn't as efficient as Mavs fans hoped (even though he was taking extremely tough shots since he was tasked with being a primary creator), and him focusing on the speed of his release ahead of the season beginning will be major for Dallas as they try to return to the playoffs.
